1952 Map of Babbitt NE

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Birch Lake and its intricate northern shoreline dominate this 1952 field-checked map of the Minnesota north woods. The landscape is a mosaic of water and timber, defined by the boundaries of the Minnesota State Forest and the Superior National Forest. While modern recreation now defines much of this region, the map records the industrial and logistical remnants of an earlier era, including the Tomahawk Camp (Abandoned) and an Old Landing Field situated amidst the dense forest. The Dunka River and Stony River carve through the glacial terrain, providing a look at the drainage patterns before significant development. Small-scale resource extraction is noted by a Quarry, while the specific topography of bays like Klotuchar Bay and Dunca Bay offer detail for those studying the evolution of this waterway.
